Hello list:

I wanted to find out if anyone out there would know the reason why would
amanda only back up half the data when the tape fits 3 times that amount.

200.0 Gig tape

60.2 gig of data
32.6 gig backed up

It would help to analyze things if we saw amanda's reports
rather than your copy of 1 number.


Hello again:

I tried to reply last night (three times) and the email was never
received.  Also, my cable router lost its configuration during the storm
and took tech support some time to figure it out.

Ok, once I took a look at the output of <amadmin DailySet1 info> I was
able to see that was the compression what threw me off.  My appologies
for wasting your time.

Has anyone taken the time to really understand this report?  Somewhere
in the documentation perhaps?  I am attaching a a copy from last night's
run, would any one mind explaining the meaning of some of those numbers
in the report (especially the negative numbers and percentages)?
Meanwhile I will be looking over the documentation.

Thanks everyone,
RV
